At present, steel structure construction has been widely used worldwide. Among the 101 super high-rise buildings built worldwide, 59 are pure steel structures, and more than 60% of high-end residences abroad use steel structures. Foreign experts believe that the construction of steel structures can protect the environment and save energy, and is one of the "dark horses" of real estate products in the 21st century.

At the end of this year, the first steel structure residential project in Beijing - Blocks B and C of Jinchen Apartments - will unveil its mysterious cover and make its debut on Financial Street. According to relevant experts, this type of steel structure residence with many advantages such as health, environmental protection, and earthquake resistance will become the development trend of residence in China in the future.

According to the person in charge of the construction unit Urban Construction Second Company, the exterior wall decoration of Jinchen Apartment adopts high-quality fluorocarbon sprayed aluminum veneer curtain wall, gypsum block internal partition wall, and ALC exterior wall panel, which is more environmentally friendly and lightweight, forming a systematic structure for the steel structure residence. The complete internal facilities can bring users a better life, such as the central vacuum system, household central air conditioning system, clean water entering the house, and so on. At the same time, the steel structure residence can increase the usable area of the indoor area by 6%, while the engineering cost can be reduced by 5%

Steel structure construction has many advantages: factory processing reduces wet operations on construction sites, steel can be recycled and reused, construction speed is fast, noise is low, dust pollution is low, and so on, which is incomparable to other forms of construction.

The timing for the development of steel structure residences is ripe

Cai Yiyan, Executive Vice Chairman of the Expert Group of the Construction Steel Structure Committee of the China Construction Metal Structure Association, believes that the development of steel structures in China is at the right time. China's steel production has consistently ranked first in the world in recent years, reaching 157 million tons last year, indicating an oversupply. The quality, variety, and specifications of steel have also greatly improved and enriched, providing a material foundation for the development of steel structure residences.

The comprehensive cost of steel structure residential buildings is basically the same as that of using reinforced concrete structures, and there is no increase in cost. However, compared to traditional residences, it has many advantages. It not only increases the usage area and allows for free space division, but also allows for 50% larger bays than concrete structures. At the same time, the construction speed is accelerated, which can avoid environmental pollution and noise pollution caused by reinforced concrete operations
